Default Different tiers of leather?
I got into a base model GS today with flaxen interior but the leather felt different, not as soft or luxurious... do the Luxury packs have a better type of leather? I tried searching and couldn't find any word on it.

Luxury package includes semi-aniline leather, which is much softer and smoother than the leather in the base and F-sport leather.

It's buttery soft. My LS had semi aniline too. It's always noticeably different when you're in another car without it.
